Community Pep Rally
The first community pep rally for the 2017-2018 Tupelo High School year was kicked off in Thursday August, 17 at Fairpark in downtown Tupelo. Having the first show of school pride is always a marvel for the local crowd as they watched the band enter with their classic fight song playing in the background as the team runs in along with the first time debut of the new tupelo boys. After this Community show of the talents of the band, the cheerleaders lead the crowd in some Tupelo traditions, allowing for a smooth transition into the first Tupelo Boy Skit of the year. The new head principal Art Dobbs made a speech wrapping up the ceremony to support the team.
